I've probably already written enough about myself and my family in this forum, but I like to type a lot, so here goes!
I'm Marla, 34, married ten years. Two kids, age 9 and 10. We live in Michigan, and despite the bad economy here, I personally wouldn't want to live anywhere else, unless farther north. I love the cold weather! (I don't ski or do anything like that, I love the cold weather because I'm lazy and love, love, love having a reason to stay at home, bake something yummy and snuggle up to my sweetie on the couch!)
My only real hobby is poker. Someday, I'll get to Vegas
My husband and children do a lot of art at home... painting, sculpting, sketching, etc., so I am always on the lookout for a deal on things like canvases and polymer clays. My son is a Star Wars Lego geek. My daughter takes dance and acting classes, but I'm no stage mother. I've already explained to her how her acting skills will get great tips for waiting tables.
We have a larger, moronic mixed breed dog. She enjoys chasing squirrels and taking long walks on the beach. Our old cranky cat likes fine dining, and is currently on a hunger strike because I brought home a very large bag of food he hates. I don't know how many hamsters we have currently. They come and go.
I work in telephone customer service/sales as a job. I was a SAHM for 8 years. I never finished college and haven't gone back because I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up.
